Introduction

Technology is always changing, always upgrading, and always attempting to make our lives more convenient. From the invention of the light bulb, the industrial revolution, the first telephone, the invention of the computer, and finally, to the creation of the internet, technology has made incredible leaps in the last one hundred fifty years. Every other day we get to know that there is something new in the market and we rush to get it so that we do not stay behind the convenience which the technology has brought to our lives.

Technology has become so ingrained in our daily life, that to be without it would be nearly impossible. We have become accustomed to it and the ease of access it brings to our daily procedures such as communication, access to information, and simple modern conveniences; technology is everywhere.

With all these delightful additions technology brings into our lives, new technology also always comes with a new learning curve and some headaches. Whenever there is a new advancement in technology and a new product that also means there are new rules, new set-ups, and new operating manuals to learn. Getting a new piece of technology can be very overwhelming while you try to learn about the new product and how to use it.

In addition to normal technological advances such as did you see that low-flow toilet which conserves water? There is a new more complicated kind of technology afoot: smart technology.

With the development of smart technology, there have been dozens of products created: smartphones, tablets, and televisions. The Amazon Echo Dot is just one of these new products in the line of smart technology. It is a great product that has been created to increase your television and movie viewing pleasure by plugging into your television. However, like with any new technology and especially any new smart technology, its operation can be a little confusing and difficult to understand. People would not be able to understand the difficult way it is described in the manuals which could get pretty frustrating for the people. Nowadays, the Y-Generation tends to understand technology better than the previous generation, and you will be surprised to know that the Z-Generation is even smarter to operate the technology. It is like the coming generations will be knowing all about technology as soon as they are born. They have the latest devices in their hands rather than playing with the toys. The new toys are the smartphones or the smart devices by which they spend their time.

You never know what new technology will come the next moment so you need to be prepared to be shocked that how much easier it can get for you to live with this technology.

While most new products come with an operating manual, some of the operating manuals are difficult to read or digest. Some of the operating manuals are confusing and written with unfamiliar jargon that makes it difficult to decipher. Sometimes, it is almost easier to figure out how your new high-tech product works by playing around with it and using trial and error than attempting to translate the manual.

This book will walk you through the steps to understanding and set up your new Amazon Echo Dot with easy language and a step-by-step approach that should make it easier for you to understand and implement. While you read this eBook, keep on operating the device so when you are practicing it, you will be able to remember it and you won’t be forgetting the features. Only the reading does not help, but the practicing will make you proficient at it.
